Contempt proceedings are not warranted when the related writ petition is pending and appropriate applications can be filed within it.

JUDGMENT

This contempt case is filed alleging violation of the interim order dated 04.12.2025 in WP(C) No.42979/2025. Admittedly, the writ petition is pending and is to be heard by the same Bench. In such circumstances, a separate contempt case need not be entertained. The petitioner can file appropriate application in the pending writ petition if there is any violation of the interim order.

Granting liberty to the petitioner to file appropriate application in the pending writ petitioner, this contempt case is closed. All the contentions raised by the petitioner in this contempt case are left open.
